About the Book
Read Herman Melville's Moby Dick in the original English, with every sentence immediately followed by its Tagalog translation. Each English sentence is numbered word-by-word, with a mini vocabulary table right there on the page — English word, Tagalog translation, and a short English gloss — so you never need to put the book down to look something up. No flipping to a glossary in the back. No guessing which word means what. Just read.
The Tagalog translation is faithful and word-for-word, staying close enough to the English that the numbered vocabulary maps clearly between both languages. Tagalog is an Austronesian language with a rich system of verbal affixes (nag-, -um-, -in-, ma-, i-) that mark grammatical focus rather than tense. Because of these structural differences, not every English word's Tagalog equivalent can be tagged inline in the translation line — but every word appears correctly in the vocabulary table directly below.
This is the complete, unabridged text of Moby Dick — all 135 chapters, from "Call me Ishmael" to the final chase. The front of the book includes a Tagalog cheat sheet covering pronunciation, basic grammar, function words, and common phrases — everything a first-time reader needs to start Chapter 1.
